I broke down and signed up for a gym membership. I HATE gyms with a passion but it was a good deal and I know I am going to need one when I move out of my apartment later this month. The current gym is lacking and so I can only do so much in there, not to mention now that it's the turn of the year, a lot of people are using the treadmills (there are only 2) and weights. At least at the gym, I can grab a treadmill without waiting hours. I am proud of myself though. I started the precycle with a 1.25 mile run that lasted 19:37 minutes and I have gotten it down to 17:40 minutes with only 2 stops to a brisk walk! That is amazing to me, no matter how slow it is. I am not a runner but I am getting better.
